MK1 Ford Focus RS

[Nick_Johnson]

Good Evening,

I was just organising a few picture which I snapped of my MK1 Focus RS during the summer and thought I would share, I hope you all approve:

Looks nice and clean, do you fancy cleaning mine?

[darren9]

Looks great. Some nice photography. My Oldsmobile has one of these. It's always an occasion driving it.

[JackP1]

lovely

[150bhp]

Very nice, would like one of these in the future.

[Court_S]

Looks amazingly clean. Nice pics.

[ManaghGB]

Looks like you've got a very clean example there!

I never really got on with mine unfortunately

Thanks for all the positives, I'd stick my neck on the line and say it is a very clean example. It was the result of a very long hunt for a standard car.

May I ask why you didn't get on with yours? Just interested....

Still look good - I even still like the interior.
Shall have another one day when I've got room.

I'm glad you said that, it looks better now than it did then. I remember collecting my first MK1 back at the launch and thinking that the interior was well over the top and I was in my early 20's then, it aged well!

Only pic of mine that I have - 2005!
Forgot its been so long.

Can't believe I px'ed it for a bloody L200!



I see you also had an EP3 type r - I sold mine to buy the Focus.

[Passeyfier]

Very Nice, your pictures sure do it justice!

In about 10-15 years these will be £20k+ for a good one

I've had three EP3's two before my first MK1 Focus and one afterward, I could never make my mind up which I preferred. I'm pleased now though, this one has got 39,000 miles on the clock and is near enough A1 condition.

Yours looked like a nice example, do you know what the build number was?

It was just never the car I thought it was going to be. I'd wanted one for so long and the end result didn't live up to the dream. The interior, particularly the seats, were awful, the ride was too hard for british B-roads and the power delivery was a bit too old school for me.

Don't get me wrong, on a good road it was brilliant and not much would keep up.

A definite future classic.

Very nice, prefer to these to the MK2. The steering wheel is the only thing im not keen on.

[neiljohnson]

Looking good

[melvster]

That is stunning, the interior looks brand new.

[CallorFold]

That's really smart!

This shape Focus has aged particularly well. Bone Fide Future Ford Classic.
